FAQs

What is the spanner size for this plug?

This plug requires a 20.8mm spanner/socket.

Is this spark plug suitable for 4-stroke engines?

The B6HS-10 is typically specified for 2-stroke outboard applications; check your owner's manual before use.

How do I know if this fits my engine?

Compare the thread length (12.7mm) and outer thread diameter (14mm) against your current plug specifications.

Should I apply anti-seize to the threads?

Only a very small amount is recommended, as excess can affect torque readings and grounding.

How often should I replace these plugs?

It is best practice to replace them annually or every 100 operating hours to maintain optimal performance.

Troubleshooting

Engine fails to start

Verify the spark plug wire is fully seated and check the spark plug for fuel fouling or carbon buildup.

Rough idling or misfiring

Check the gap of the electrode and ensure the plug is not cracked or damaged; replace if the insulator is chipped.

Cons

  • Specific to select older outboard models

Setup, Compatibility & Care

When installing the NGK B6HS-10, always use a spark plug socket with a 20.8mm hex. Hand-thread the plug first to avoid cross-threading the aluminum cylinder head, then tighten to the manufacturer's specified torque.

Compatibility Checklist:

  • Yamaha: 3 Hp 1-Cyl models.
  • Suzuki: DT6, DT8c, DT9.9, and DT9.9c 2-Cyl models.
  • Force (U.S. Marine): 35Hp models.

Care Tips:

  • Keep the terminal nut clean and free of corrosion.
  • Periodically inspect the electrode gap to maintain the 1mm spark position.
  • Replace plugs according to your engine service interval, typically every season or after 100 hours of use.
